Subject: [PATCH] fsnotify: initialize mask in fsnotify_perm
Date: Wed, 12 May 2010 11:49:21 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1273679361-2346-1-git-send-email-eparis@redhat.com> (raw)

akpm got a warning the fsnotify_mask could be used uninitialized in
fsnotify_perm().  It's not actually possible but his compiler complained
about it.  This patch just initializes it to 0 to shut up the compiler.
